Financial Aid Opportunities

Graduate students and second bachelor degrees should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using code 002974 as soon as possible after March 1st of each year. For undergraduate students seeking their first undergraduate degree, they should also plan to complete the College Board Profile.

For information about the financial aid process, estimated costs, and types of aid available, please visit the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid website:

The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) scholarship is a competitive program that pays tuition, fees and provides a living stipend to students enrolled in accredited medical (MD or DO), dental, nurse practitioner, certified nurse midwife, and physician assistant training programs. Upon graduation, scholarship recipients serve as primary care providers between 2 and 4 years in a community-based site in a high-need Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) that has applied to and been approved by the NHSC as a service site.

Awards are made to applicants most committed to serving underserved people, most likely to build successful careers in HPSAs, and meet future needs for care throughout the nation. Application instructions can be found at the NHSC website.
